SMART CITY BRAKE SUPPORT (SCBS) SYSTEM
(if equipped)
The SCBS system is designed to reduce damage in the event of a
collision by applying the brakes when the system’s laser sensor detects
a vehicle ahead. The system operates when the vehicle speed is 2 to
18 mph (4 to 30 km/h) and the system determines that a collision with
a vehicle ahead is unavoidable.
NOTE:
